Thread: multiple accounts on the one server - acceptable?

  1. #1

    Default multiple accounts on the one server - acceptable?

    Can I presume by the absolute lack of action by Evony that multiple accounts on the one server is acceptable and "legal" in Evony?

    Can I now go ahead and set up accounts 2,3,4 and have myself 8 cities for nothing?

    Wonderful.

    I cant wait to start.

    Evony have been questioned about multiple accounts on many occasions here and via the contact me button, so I will now set up 3 more accounts and have myself a dukedom without having to pay for medals. And I dont expect to be penalised because ever since Evony complained about bots being cheats, Evony users have complained about multiple accounts being cheats. Obviously multiple accounts arent cheats.

    Look out server. Her I come, I come, I come, I come.

    You guys are dumb.

    You don't know for a fact the people you reported are using multiple accounts, so you're going to use multiple accounts yourself and get banned.

    The guy admitted to me he was in mail,his cities on seperate accounts are all named after him with small variation,and they are all placed adjacent to each other,so yeah...

    I agree. Because we have been unable to instantaneously police the actions of 11 million accounts and immediately ban every single one that could even possibly be a multi without any evidence whatsoever with regards to family members, friends, roommates, etc. that you therefore have full rights to disobey our rules and do whatever you please.

    [/sarcasm]

    Maybe you ought to rethink that. Or then again, do as you like, but could I please have your lord name and server number?

    You actually choose not to "police" accounts. There are ways of fixing this problem, and I know Evony doesn't want to put the effort into doing so.

    This is nonsense. None of the posters complaining implied that they expected the game's staff to trawl around every server and find every potential "multi-accounter" and ban them. The complaint was that there has been no action taken against players with multiple accounts even when complaints were submitted in the appropriate fashion and with valid evidence, such as quotes from the offending players themselves.

    Nobody complained that action wasn't "instantaneous." The first poster mentioned complaining "multiple times" and the second stated that it had been three weeks.

    It's not difficult to enforce the rule when an appropriate complaint is submitted. A staffer looks at the complaint, checks the accounts complained of and looks for a variety of factors - IP addresses, account names, email addresses, alliance membership, statements by the player, just to name a few, and this is certainly not an exhaustive list. This is made considerably easier by the fact that most often when someone is cheating to this degree, multiple players have submitted complaints. If the complaint seems valid, you suspend the accounts and inform the users. If they can somehow show that the accounts didn't belong to the same person, you can reactivate them at the click of a button.

    The administration of such a process is not the daunting task that you've claimed, because you've mischaracterized the problem. As an instructive example, there is a player on my server who several members of my alliance have complained of. The name of all of his accounts is exactly the same, with a different numeral at the end of each one. The name of each of his cities is the same, with a different numeral at the end of each one. All of the accounts happen to be a member of the same alliance and have almost exactly the same prestige. Attacks from one account are very frequently accompanied by attacks from the others. All of his cities are in close proximity to each other. In each of our complaints, we've even included statements made the player bragging that he was cheating and that the staff would never take action despite being aware. It's been days since we submitted these complaints, not hours, not minutes.

    This isn't a problem of a "gray area." The fact that this guy is cheating has been served to the Evony staff on a silver platter, and they've declined to take action.

    The argument that "there are just too many people" doesn't apply in the cases that I or the other posters here have complained of. If Evony isn't going to enforce a rule, than don't make it.
